Weekly Beats 2018 #9

Bass-heavy, played around with lsdj grooves this week (noise channel). Can't believe it's week 9 already; I think I've written twice as much tracks as I did throughout the entirety of 2017. WeeklyBeats is such a great stimulus to your creativity.

Came back from France on Friday, so only had part of the weekend to work on this wb. Managing to squeeze out a track like this in a couple of hours teaches you a lot.

Oh yes, that growl is so gutteral, amazing melody work with it as well &lt;3 I love how this track progresses

Guttural describes it so perfectly, exactly what I was going for! Cool!

so much going on in this track! kick-ass!!

Yeah, I guess a lot happens in this wb. One of the most frequent comments I used to get was that I switched to new material way too often, so that's always a delicate balance for me. Happy you like it

nice tune

I like the change to the triple time very much.
Very nice metric modulation example

Hah, always knew the trick, never knew the name. Thanks for teaching! *goes on a music theory trip*
Glad you like the tune!

Great work man, especially under time pressure! I love the switch ups with that rhythm &lt;3

Thanks! The time pressure works really well for me in a weird sense. Forces you to not think too long about some dilemma's and just GO! \m/

A frantic rush to the finish line! Great track, really enjoyed the tension and the rise up to the bouncy squares!

Thanks, both of you! Your kind words mean a lot to me ^_^

I'm digging the bass, but something about it bugs me. I'm not sure what it is though.
